CISCO CLI console commands
Firstly for using commands in the first place, you'll need to find an individual computer's command prompt in packet tracer. To do this simply click on a pc/laptop you have in packet tracer, go to the Desktop tab, and click the command prompt option to open a new window that acts as the command prompt for that specific PC. Here we can use commands like those in other command prompts on VM or actual computers such as arp -a to see the ARP cache table that was currently stored on the machine. For checking the Switch's CLI command prompt, simply click on the switch and select the CLI option. This will open a new window containing the Command Line Interface. To get into administrator mode, it depends on what the CLI defaults you to, if the prompt looks like Switch>, then simply type enable to enter admin mode, but if the prompt looks like Switch (config)# you'll need to type exit to get back to the basic mode for admin access. From here in admin mode, you can use the command show mac-address-table to review the table the switch is storing the Mac Address and Port information it is storing in the switch.
